Readers' Choice: Wuollet Bakery

There's no more essential activity in Western culture than the transformation of flour into baked goods. And around these parts, there are no more skillful hands than the busy ones at Turtle Bread, where that humble ingredient is turned into a stunning array of comestibles ranging from the mundane to the miraculous. For a quick tour of the wonders of flour, pick up a chewy Turtle Bread baguette, a fragrant pane agli spinachi (spinach bread), a flaky almond-filled croissant, a spectacular apple, raspberry, or key lime pie, and a handful of the monstrously tasty peanut butter-chocolate chunk cookies, chock-full of Belgian dark chocolate pieces the size of quarters. Is your bread basket full yet? You haven't even tasted half of what Turtle Bread has to offer.
